u-boot + stratix EP1S40 + issue

Hi haq,

Just FYI, the latest u-boot sources were posted a few days ago and are available at:

http://www.psyent.com/download (http://www.psyent.com/download)

And patches were submitted to the main u-boot project at sourceforge.net -- but it usually takes

a few months for patches to show up.

BTW: it would be very helpful if you downloaded these sources and gave it a quick try

using the EP1S40_config.

You might want to check all of your network settings and your tftp server configuration. Your

mac address in your environment is different than the one used by tftpboot. If you need a test

mac address, you can use the gen_eth_addr tool that comes with u-boot ... it will generate

a locally-administered mac for you.

tftpboot is the fastest way to download you images ... but that's not working for you at the

moment ... so you can use the loadb command with kermit to get your image into ram.

Just be careful not to download over the exception trampoline ;-)
